Knights and Prlhcesses for an evening by Jenniffer Smith Five o'clock, time to transform. The everyday Redmond High School stu- dent becomes a radiant prin- cess awaiting the arrival of her knight-in-shining armor. Before this couple sets out on the adventure, a photo session of eager parents must be attended. Once the fan- sfparentsl have been satis- fied it's off into the sunset, where the fun is just begin- ning. Most couples started their Prom evening by fulfilling the reservations made at ele- gant restaurants such as El Crab Catcher, Pine Tavern, Le Bistrols, Beef n' Brew, and McKenzie's Bar n' Grill, to name a few. Dinner was good, but it took too long and was too ex- pensivef, stated Senior Jon Jinings. For some, dinner was a time to enhance etiquette skills such as pulling out the placing the napkin on the lap before eating and remember- ing to use the salad fork first. For others, however, dinner was a time to loosen up the other-wise tense nerves. To do this , one such group sere- naded couples at the Pine Tavern with H99 Beers on the Walll' The under-paid singers were Locke Jarms, Ange Snyder, Toby Wilson, Cathe Davidson, Mark Stew- art, Melita Tripp, Kevin Carty, and Kristy Spicer. Once dinner was complet- ed, it was back to the horse driven carriages, which for some ranged from the memo- rable 55 Chevy to the party animal itself, a 38 foot motor home, controlled by Jeff Jor- dan and his companion An- gala Waite. Big City Nightsf, the theme for the 1988 Prom, displayed a sense of elegance when 170 couples arrived at the designated place, the River House. Here, a roman- deck was a chair so to seat the ladies, tic walk on the Deonncl Hucke ond Jomes Gregoire Toke o rornonTlc wolk on The River House deck.

One of the more popular couples danc- ing was the Prom Queen her- self, Julia Baker with escort Justin Houston. After waiting in line for pictures, snacking on pre- pared food and dancing the night away, the evening was still not over. Parties . . . Parties Parties! Where? Well . . . partiers never tell.

by Toni Ulam Two dilemmas threatend sports at Red- mond High School this year. The first dilem- ma came in mid-fall with the death of Athle- tic Director Don Rich. Glenn Kinney and Dick Branaugh took over the many respon- sibilities of the sports program, The second dilemma took its toll gradual- ly with the school budget failing earlier and many programs feeling the pinch. Athletes were required to pay for their own meals on away trips. During the winter sports pro- grams, the athletes paid for meals and overnight lodging. During the spring sports season, a pay- as-you-play fee of S50 went into effect. Many businesses in the community pro- vided scholarships for athletes that were in need. lf there was more than one family member participating in a sport then the rate went down. The pay-as-you-play ap- parently did not affect the number of par- ticipants going out for the spring sports. RHS sports have excelled in the past few years. The football team went from the bot- tom ofthe IMC standings to being a tough competitor in the league. The soccer team went to the state tournament for the sec- ond year in a row. The cross country team sent Dawn Shank to the state cross country meet. Shank placed 23rd out of 232 partici- pants. The volleyball team started out with all new coaches. They were Marcy Feagans Burks, varsity coachg Bob Nygaard, JV coach: and Jan Smith, freshman coach. The winter sports provided a few upsets. The biggest upset was the panther wres- tling team, who were the co-champions ot the dual meets in District 7 Class AAA, and placed ninth in the state. The next upset was the lady panther? basketball team beating the LaGrande ti, gers, who were at one time ranked seconc in the state. The boys basketball team earned a spot in the sub-tournament playoffs, but lost tc Lake Oswego, 66-54. To add one more up- beat note to the winter sports season, bott' the boys and girls swim teams took districl titles. Matt Brown set a new state record ir the 100-yard breaststroke at the time oi 57.83 seconds. Not to be forgotten is the' RHS ski team. The boys team placed ar impressive third at the state competition. The final season of the year is the spring sports season. The girls track team cap- tured 1Oth at the state tournament. The boys track team placed third at districts Keeping the boys tennis singles district title' in Redmond for the fifth year in a row was Steve Mickel. Building seasons were intac' for the baseball and golf teams. The las' spring sport is rodeo, which has one ofthe most outstanding all-around girls leader Penny Conforth. Shane Gomes and Parr Peterson also had an impressive season ir team roping, Many students at RHS have Discovered the Power inside of sports programs. 'fy 3 E? ii
